Re: running deep water
Bret, Now I've never yet owned an Airboat but from the sound of all this I thimk maybe I'd have to put me on some side boards and also some backboard before I got to the deep stuff. Looks like to me the water is gonna be coming in faster than you can run out from under it unless it's a powerhouse su...

Re: 10% Ethanol
We can thamk all the stooges across the country that make out those little checks to the greenheads every month.
If they can trash 12 Billion ruining the Everglades & 1.7 Billion buying a sugar mill then ruining our fuel shouldn't be
a problem.

Re: Trophy Buck
Sometimes a fool will meddle with the wrong mans stuff.
Evidently this nerd knew nothing abt the people behind the fence he cut & drove over.
But once he found out he decided being locked up was abt the safest place to be.
He is very lucky indeed.

Re: Foot pedal steering
Arch,
So is that the gas pedal I see abt where the right foot rests? = Sharp.
My invision of such a setup was a horizontal swivel plate with rudder pedals that swivel for the gas.
But it appears from what is shown this is a simpler setup.
Thnx for the pic, Gben

J bub I've never seen one set up that way but seems way togo for us ole stiff legged pilots & also the serious fisher. Shouldn't cost much more & one could hold the rod in right hand & bud in left hand? Hunters too for both hands for his rifle shotgun or even western style two pistols. Wasn't much h...

Re: The Diesel I Wanted When I wanted it!
Thnx Dan, Awesome power for the low rpm hush props most are now going to but 20x8.5 is fairly big for most. But then agn no one is same & it wouldn't bother us in deep water most of the time anyway.
